I think this is a wonderful entry and I like your result!  ♥
And that idea with the wax paper is great. I have to keep that in mind, in case I need some custom stenciling as well.

Having nothing to make dots with was one reason why I didn't pick this tutorial.

Thank you GinkgoWerkstatt! Glad to be of some help 😗

This is a delightful cookie!  I absolutely adore Dolce Sentire's mixed media style, and you completely nailed it with this tutorial and entry! I do not see ANY "fails" here, but only clever work-arounds.  The finished result is really lovely, and something you should definitely be proud of!

Thank you @Bakerloo Station, I was hoping that I will achieve same results as shown in tutorial, that is why I was a bit disappointed. 

With your and @Julia M. Usher's point of view, I am looking my cookie differently now

I like mix media style, and I was preparing myself for Pamoda's tutorial in the first place, Few days ago, I finally received some stamps that I ordered and I did her tutorial as well. Soon I will upload that cookie as well, but not as practise bakes challenge. 

Thanks again ❤❤❤

Wow! Very nice! There's absolutely NO way you failed on many levels, as you said. Your creation of a homemade stencil was ingenious, and, even if it was a touch asymmetrical, you can't see that asymmetry on the cookie. Even if you could, a little asymmetry on this sort of mixed media cookie is entirely fitting. All the other elements look extremely well executed. Congrats!

Thank you Julia for kind words.

Hello All,

This time I followed the tutorial "Get Inspired with Dolce Sentire: Mixed Media Valentine Tag"  by  @Dolce Sentirehttp://cookieconnection.juliau...ntic-valentine-s-tag, and I failed on so many levels. 

As I don´t have polka dot stencil, I made my own dotty stencil out of wax paper with a hole punch tool, and as you can see, my dots are not symmetrical.

Also I don´t have dusting colors, so I used airbrush instead.

I made heart transfer out of royal icing, but after some time it broke, so I made another one using fondant.

Brush embroidery is something that I never manage to do properly, although Ive tried using stiff/soft royal consistency, dry/damp brush, following various you tube tutorials and still not good. In spite all of that, I enjoyed working on this cookie, because I always wanted to try mixed media and I like that vintage look on Dolce Sentire's cookie.
